Too good for the US?
While we could definitely see the ultra-affordable 6.5-incher reach other countries and regions a little further down the line, history and common sense suggests a US launch, for instance, is probably not in the cards, which will come as sad but wholly unsurprising news to Motorola’s hardcore fans stateside.
The 4GB RAM count and especially the 128 gigs of internal storage space are also pretty impressive (and unusual) endowments for a sub-$150 handset today, and on the software side of things, you get Android 13 out the box and a guaranteed Android 14 update… someday, which is a good but not great promise for any price bracket.
Many apparent strengths, just a few glaring flaws
For a $120 device, the G14 does look distinguished and elegant, at least at first glance, also sounding like it will impress you with how light it feels in the hand, tipping the scales at 177 grams and sporting a 7.99mm waist.
Available in “steel gray” and “sky blue” colorways, the budget-friendly phone is also water “repellent”, which is not technically the same thing as water resistant, but still pretty good for the rough equivalent of 120 US bucks.
